Final Fantasy 14: Dawntrail Launches on July 2nd, Early Access Starts June 28th

The latest Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth update patch is now available to download, and it fixes the infamous Platinum Trophy bug that’s been plaguing some players. Like most modern video games, Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth includes a list of Trophies that players can earn by completing various tasks in-game. Some of these achievements are simply a matter of playing through the game’s story and reaching certain moments, while others require going off the beaten path and fulfilling side objectives. At the very top of every PlayStation achievement list is the Platinum Trophy, the ultimate accolade that signifies that a player has fully completed the video game in question.

It is no exaggeration to say that Final Fantasy Tactics is one of the most successful spin-offs in the long history of Square Enix's IP.

A potential remaster of Final Fantasy Tactics has been in the rumour mill for several years at this point, and even though official word on whether or not it exists remains elusive, Final Fantasy 16 producer Naoki Yoshida – who’s also the director and producer of Final Fantasy 14 – has indicated that he, at the very least, is personally interested in seeing Final Fantasy Tactics be brought back.

Matthew Mercer, the prolific voice actor who played Vincent Valentine in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth, recently discussed how he first found out who he would be voicing and how much it took him by surprise. While Vincent Valentine was an optional, missable party member in the original Final Fantasy 7, he played a major role in the backstory and larger expanded universe of the original game, quickly becoming a fan favorite that gamers couldn’t wait to see again in Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth.

With Square Enix’s Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth out now on PS5 and earning extensive accolades from critics, the development team is focusing on the third and final entry of the Remake saga. Though it hasn’t announced a release window or even an official name, a new 42-minute video is available where Rebirth composer Nobuo Uematsu, scenario writer Kazushige Nojima and creative director Tetsuya Nomura talk about the trilogy.

It’s been a huge 12 months for Final Fantasy, and Square Enix is seemingly just getting warmed up. Following on from the reveal of Final Fantasy 16 add-on The Rising Tide earlier this weekend, the publisher has now confirmed MMO expansion Final Fantasy 14: Dawntrail will deploy on 2nd July. This all follows the release of Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth last month, of course.

The long-awaited Final Fantasy XVI crossover is coming to Final Fantasy XIV on April 2 and running through May 8. Fans have been waiting for what seems like eons for the collab, which was initially teased in a trailer back in October 2023.

With more people than ever currently on the Final Fantasy 14 hype train, it makes sense that millions flocked to the Square Enix website in an attempt to get their Dawntrail pre-orders locked in and ready for the expansion's July 2 release. Unfortunately, those of you who have prior history with the Square Enix website probably knew things weren't going to be that simple, and right on cue, pre-orders for Dawntrail have been an absolute mess.

Just as pre-orders for Final Fantasy 14: Dawntrail went live in North America, the Square Enix Store experienced technical issues due to the mass user traffic. At the time of writing, Final Fantasy 14 posted on social media that the storefront's developers were aware of the issue and suggested some temporary workarounds as the investigations continued.

Final Fantasy XVI producer Naoki Yoshida has shared much news at PAX East. To begin with, during the panel held last Friday, we learned a lot about the upcoming Rising Tide DLC, which drops on April 18 for PlayStation 5 and adds a new area, ally, and the Leviathan Eikon.
